Posted August 14, 20222 yr Originally the lead from their 2019 double-single ‘Seven Inches Of Satanic Panic’, Swedish hard rock/metal band Ghost’s ‘Mary On A Cross’ is currently Top 100 on Spotify UK following its viral use on TikTok! Their most recent album ‘IMPERA’ from this year already has really strong streaming numbers, so hopefully this can further push them into the mainstream here. k5mX3NkA7jM
August 14, 20222 yr I liked 'Square Hammer' by them. Will give this a proper listen later but good for them to be onto a hit of sorts.
August 14, 20222 yr Probably my favourite track by them , but i prefer them when they lean in to their pop side.
August 16, 20222 yr Just listened to this for the first time and... I'm loving it! We need more of this kind of stuff in the charts :D
August 16, 20222 yr Up to 55 today on Spotify. No sign on Apple yet though from what I can see. I'm so here for this type of rock music in the chart!
August 16, 20222 yr Really hope this leads to people discovering their other stuff as they have so much brilliant music - they are always described as heavy metal or hard rock… I’ve always thought they lean heavily into pop/rock
August 16, 20222 yr They're basically just a modern take on Black Sabbath so they're equal parts melodic pop hooks but also the very definition of classic heavy metal because of the riffs
August 17, 20222 yr #50 on Spotify today. Should be on approach for top 40 next week if it doesn't suddenly halt.
August 17, 20222 yr They have been really pushing the song on their socials - reposting TikTok videos and encouraging people to stream
August 17, 20222 yr Author #50 on Spotify today. Should be on approach for top 40 next week if it doesn't suddenly halt. Hopefully, it still hasn’t entered on the Apple charts though unfortunately!
August 18, 20222 yr Most of my prior Ghost knowledge is Square Hammer shaped and that is great, so I was intrigued by them capturing the attention of TikTok :o Anyway, this is fantastic :wub: hope it can challenge for the top 40.
August 19, 20222 yr Love out of the blue chart stuff like this, not as good as Square Hammer, but enjoying it a lot x
August 19, 20222 yr Inject this into my veins Debuts at #54 today! Hopefully it can go Top 40 next week. Fingers crossed *.* I've only had two top 40 hits as personal chart #1s this year so far (Dave - In The Fire and MCR - The Foundations of Decay), ready to make this a holy trinity
August 20, 20222 yr Debuts at #54 today! Hopefully it can go Top 40 next week. Love that it’s had a strong debut - streaming on rotation to hopefully help it on its way to the Top 40 :cheer:
August 25, 20222 yr Author The ‘slowed + reverb’ version that went viral on TikTok now has an official release, hopefully that can push it into the Top 40 next week!
August 26, 20222 yr #43 today officially today climbing 11 from last week and up to #35 on Spotify. Yay top 40 next Friday locked in :cheer: (I do admit I still prefer 'Square Hammer' though).
